Noted that...haven't made a home brewed yet.
FWIW I loaded the Suse module directly using "insmod -f ~ rtl8180_24x.o" (as 
it's actually compiled for a different kernel version it wont load without 
'-f' option) but then it loads with a few comments about -f option and 
tainted modules:o)

/var/log/syslog gives the following output of the occasion which doesn't look 
too bad by itself.

Alas the last line is followed by a kernel panic and lock-up of the machine 
forcing a hard reboot.
Any clues why? It all looks pretty OK to me.

There was quite a bit of screen output during the lock-up.....any idea if this 
is saved somewhere? I can't seem  to find anything even vaguely related, like 
core dumps.
